It's too bad that you have made mistakes. Too bad that I cannot relate. When all else fails When all else fades. I kept my way through bitter days (through bitter days) What you don't know. Won't leave a scar. What you don't know. Hasn't killed you so far. What you don't know. Is who you are. I just give you something to talk about. What you don't know. It's too late that now. I've changed my mind. Too late somehow. To recognize When all else fails When all I fight. I hold my words. And leave all the time. (Just lost in time) What you don't know. Won't leave a scar. What you don't know. Hasn't killed you so far. What you don't know. Is who you are. I just give you something to talk about. So you lost yourself. Turn to someone else. And you can't give up your will to want to know. Then you find yourself. And you're someone else. In the end you only get what you deserve. (What you deserve) What you don't know. Won't leave a scar. What you don't know. Hasn't killed you so far. What you don't know. Is who you are. I just give you something to talk about. What you don't know.
